Hi.
More posting = less features.

The problem is that people actually run 2 spirit rangers because the elite is so good and can actually cycle their elites for mid fights, the spirits themselves are great, the ranger is an exceptional duelist, what’s not to love about an over performing prof?

Ive been playing d/p s/d thief for the last hour and a half…
I have to say d/p is sooooooo much easier to play then s/d..

Steal interrupts 21s cd, spammable interrupts.. dazes and ridiculous damage plus blind field. ..etc its beyond ridiculous.

The top 10 things you want to see changed.

in PvP

Posted by: Darnis.4056

Darnis.4056

1. Nerf Auto attack; ALL auto attacks. There’s too many auto-attacks which grant too much efficiency; Mesmer Greatsword Ranger Shortbow Necro Scepter Thief shortbow Come to mind.

2. Nerf Spam… cooldowns, cooldowns everywhere…
Increased initiative costs for those of us who don’t have cooldowns..

3. Nerf AutoHealing. Regen warriors too crazy. Regen spirit beasts too crazy.

4. Nerf Pet HP.. All pets take a nerf to HP.
ALL pets even phantasms.

5. Nerf Block/Invuln Durations. Condition Immunity Durations.

Premade farming hotjoin ? LOOOOOOOOOOOL

That’s the most hilarious thing I’ve ever heard, you’re saying someone’s actually out to farm useless currency IN A TEAM? Sure I’ve seen r57HotjoinHeroes who hotjoin all day erryday but a TEAM of them?

If you want efficient glory farming just join a glory farming server…
Hit everybody jump into a hole; repeat. FREE GLORY/RANK POINTS OMG
(OH WAIT IT’S COMPLETELY USELESS)

This is why Glory can never become a real currency, to be traded for things like Gems..

No it’s not long, if you look at other games the devs have actually spoiled us with attention, maybe they’re slowly weening us off it?

This is really the worst time to do it though as the discontent is like.. the worst it’s ever been… PVP forum has always been filled with tears though.. so maybe not ?:/

@Jackums
It’s hybrid DPS for sure which is why I run Rampagers/zerk jewel

I can do okay sustain with condies/staffclonespam when I can’t fight, I can also Burst surprisingly well…

Again though the updated version is;
http://intothemists.com/calc/?build=-N3lZ;1VPV11y6ZV-71;9;4JJ;0T08-19;514AKwl6;2KJG4KJG47Bd
Ipersona is there because retal/confusion/surviving thieves/+300 condi Damage is worth more to me then 1 second of stealth I’m probably not going to use anyway.

PU/tank stats are great for duels, I’m not a duelist though, My job is to DPS, and move..
OH and also to apply the dps so I need condi cleanses

1 Block
9 seconds of invis
2 Teleports
STILL not enough when the world is covered in red circles..

In my opinion, Anet should greatly reduce the spirits recharge, their cast time and duration, nerf their passive effects and significantly improve/change the active effects. Same with the banners.

I wanted to make this point a while ago; Spirits should be low cd/ Low hp (Like phantasms) or low passive abilities.

Damage boosts for Bunker builds? What train of thought ARE YOU running?
No thanks

OH WAIT THEY DO SCALE HURR HURR

2. Multi attacks ARE an issue a low crit guard can proc with a multi attack.
Now they don’t even need that.

Posted by: Darnis.4056

Darnis.4056

Crit is mitigated by weakness right?…
You also need to choose between crit and surviveability on a condi class..
Bunkers should not get on hit weapons…

Crit also decreases the instances of procs.. even at 50% crit with a 20% sigil that’s only 10% chance it’ll go off, what about multi attacks with low low crit, should we buff those builds just because?

This is not a bug this is how rating works; I’ve noticed after a looot of matches with the same people when you’re matched against the people on your previous team that decides who goes to the next rating bracket and who stays in the swamp of afk/rlybads.

Darnis.4056

Yes a band aid fix is easier you’re right but I disagree with you where you think it’s the right answer or even a better answer.

The key to fixing the meta is to tone down things like
Necro Scepter1 and Signet of spite,
Slow necro attack speed to Mesmer’s scepter…
Passive buffs from Warriors
Spirit elite for Rangers

If those things were to go away Elemenentalist would be much more viable, unless you want to continue the power creep that’s been going on since beta..

OMG Necro UP BUFF NECRO
(Necro is super strong now maybe a bit too strong for skill required)
OMG Ranger UP BUFF RANGER
(Ranger is super strong now maybe a bit too strong for skill required)
OMG Warrior UP BUFF WARRIOR
(Warrior is in a great place right now, maybe a bit too strong for skill required)
OMG ELE UP BUFF ELE

You see where this is going?

Why midnight when you can use Signet of STUNYOUINTHEFACE for a 3 second stun with ridiculous range? More with sigil of para.
More condi damage too

If you have to use a signet that’s the one
Too many good utilities to use signet of midnight… imho..

I’m hoping that’s the next big change they roll out..
I’m guessing they couldn’t put out the whole spectator mode in one update but had to put out something cause players kept badgering em for just an inkling of what’s coming.

Rank 1-100 tpvp match spectator mode; where you can watch high ranked matches an hour after they’re played would be really great.

Am I the only one left that thinks pvp/pve should remain completely seperate?

I think they should consider adding more fringe benefits like bags/dyes for pvping..
Maybe Monthly can give Pvp versions of new pve weapons?
Maybe Minipets?
Maybe Bagspace/bank space items from team/solo arena at a 1/10,000 drop?
Maybe Salvage kits that work in Pvp AND pve? Maybe with 100 charges instead of 15?
Why does it take so long to salvage pvp weapons as opposed to whites in pve?

Who came up with the brilliant idea of 15 Salvage kits for pvp?Honestly, terrible design (BUT BUT WE’LL MAKE EM SPEND GLORY HEUHEUHEUHUHEUHUEHUEHUEHUEH)

More fringe benefits which I’ll never use in pve anyway please.

People just get upset you didn’t rez them or all yall got your kitten wooped or you guys ran away from the fight and left him to die so he gives up. Some people just have low anger issues or whatever its called when someone gets mad because you didn’t do something right.

The problem with that is they may not have a full awareness of what is ‘right’. Example:

“RES ME NOOBS!”
“WHAT ARE THESE ‘WELLS’ YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT?”

or:

“OMFG L2STOMP”
“WHAT DOES YOU HAVING 37 HEALTH HAVE TO DO WITH IT? STOMP!!!1one”

That’s the two most common ragefails I see anyway. Someones corpse getting cleaved to hell and crying because no one will revive them, or someone whining about a lack of stomps when there’s just no one left in the fight who can survive standing still for that long. Third would be the guy who cries about lack of stomps when his team has no stability and are getting pingponged.

The whole concept of blaming your team is stupid anyway. If the matchmaking paired you, it’s because you’re fairly close in rating. If the matchmaking set them against the other team, it’s because the other team is fairly close to them in rating too. If you’re so much better you should be able to carry against that level of opposition.

You’re playing with people around your skill level, so maybe focus on your own mistakes instead of theirs. Calling your team noobs begs the question: what are you doing in their bracket?

dog.. you crazy man.. wtf are u even talking about when u get paired.. its totally random.. in ranks you get paired with u dont always get paired with people ur rank.. even if.. idc about rank its more of people dont want to listen to their team that results. in the rest of the team loosing.. because and TBH here.. 1 person can actually make a difference. believe it or not. every single 4v5.. game ive been in we lost.. and got murdered.. thats just me stating fact right there. its the fact that normally 80% of the time low ranking players have absolutely no idea wat they are doing in tpvp.. >.>

You want staff fixes?.. staff removed from game. Anet’s work is done here.

Seriously though why ask for buffs to an aoe weapon? I get that it’s not viable but why would anet buff aoe when they’ve said they don’t want an aoe meta…

How is this even a valid argument? Every weapon in gw2 is aoe! Except some thief skills lol.

So if that is the case they might as well buff staff to the levels of other aoe. Or what I’d suggest, bring other aoe down to staff’s level.

I’d be down with the 2nd but definitely not the first part of that.. MORE AOE MOAR :/

The best way to win, if that’s what you wanna do is to learn to play every cheese class, there’s a cheese class you can play for every map.

Warrior/BMRanger on Spiritwatch
Guardian/Necro/SRanger On Khylo

Just make 5 classes specifically for each map and you’ll have a much easier time carrying.

Eh .. tournament tickets were a mistake; if you look at high ranked players they were just straight up FARMING gems.. 20k gems? ez
Why would anet create a Gem factory?..

This isn’t like buying gems with gold mind you, because you can get free tickets
(I had over 200 at one point) and you’re literally pumping gems into the economy to be used to buy skins/chests/whatever.

So anet is obviously not gonna do that again…
